The Joint Reconnaissance Study Group is the San Diego-based combined-service/agency research and activities team in my novels "Mission Into Light" and sequel "Light's Hand." This site contains information of interest to the JRSG.

It’s a question on the minds
of many people and has been for several decades now: Can the American and
international public deal with information about visitors from other planets
and maybe other dimensions?

It probably depends on who
you ask. It also may depend on how much and what kind of information
we are talking about.

We don’t need to look very
far to see that some people apparently prefer to be in total denial about
visitors from elsewhere. For example, even when presented with solid evidence and strong
indications that advanced spacecraft (not ours) are flying in our skies, many
people choose not to face facts.

However, maybe that’s
understandable.

There have been decades of
efforts to label people as kooks and nuts if they are interested in UFOs,
extraterrestrials and other kinds of unconventional topics.

Some people certainly can be
mentally unsound in various ways. Yet, reasonable interest and normal curiosity
about UFOs, visitors from elsewhere and other subjects are probably healthy and can indicate
that a person is thinking logically and intelligently.

SAFETY AND INTELLIGENCE

Actually, it seems like
common sense. In the case of UFOs, objects in the sky (sometimes at low altitudes) and on the ground
have been clearly seen and reported by highly-reliable witnesses. These
objects, some appearing to be advanced spacecraft, have appeared on radar.

It seems somewhat kooky to
pretend that these things do not exist.

These kinds of apparent
spacecraft have reportedly been on the radar of our defense communities both
literally and in terms of possible or probable national security issues.

One of these national
security issues may be how information about the situation might affect our
people in the U.S. and around the world. So, it’s not just a national security
matter, it’s a global security situation.

As such, it’s serious
business. And serious security measures have allegedly been implemented over
the years. “Need-to-know” protocols, “operational security (OPSEC)” and other concepts
used in defense activities reportedly may have played important parts in
keeping certain information secret.

At the same time, according to
some claims, efforts were made to start getting the American and international
public ready for more information about this situation.

But how much information
should the public know? What kind of information should be released? And how
should such information be presented? This is where we get into details that
could be interesting and hopeful, or scary and worrisome. Or, maybe all of the
above.

DISCOVERIES AND UNDERSTANDING

If some visitors are friendly
and want to help us, great. And what if some are hostile or just don’t have our
best interests at heart, but have their own agendas and priorities? What if
some of these different kinds of visitors don’t get along among themselves?

Are there conflicts, battles,
cold wars or hot wars and spy operations going on behind the scenes, or in our
future? Are extraterrestrials or
other unconventional beings among us?

Maybe some of these visitors
are basically human like we are. And what if some of them are so
different-looking and different-behaving that we have a hard time dealing with
those elements of the situation?

Some related developments and
discoveries could be so unconventional or far out that we might naturally have
trouble wrapping our minds around them. These include wormholes and star gates,
time travel, telepathy and ESP, other dimensions including what we call the afterlife
or Heaven, angels and other kinds of beings that are not simply from another
planet, forgotten ancient histories of the human race and Planet Earth, and
other subjects that we can hardly imagine or understand.

How would we, or how will we
deal with more solid information about these kinds of topics? Will we be
fearful? Will we be disoriented and confused?

Or, will we handle increased information and understanding about these kinds of things fairly well and adjust to them in
healthy ways?

As we consider all the many
moving parts of the UFO situation, along with other discoveries, maybe we can see why certain information may have been held back
from the general public.

And as more such information
comes to light, we will probably need to continue to be aware of potential
problems and dangers, while also trying to move forward and adjust to greater
acceptance about the situation at hand.

Feature film screenplay

I also completed a feature film screenplay in 2006 based on “Mission Into Light” and “Light’s Hand” combining key elements of both novels.

The screenplay takes audiences into the adventures and discoveries of the Joint Recon Study Group and the relationships among team members, friends and associates as they explore leading-edge research and emerging transcendent developments.

About the Author

I was born and raised in southwestern Ohio near the Kentucky and Indiana borders, then went to college at Ohio University in the southeastern Appalachian region of the state near West Virginia.

I graduated with a dual major in communication (journalism focus) and health education (psychology focus) with a minor in pre-law.

I experienced orientation and training with Army Special Forces (intelligence focus)as an Army officer trainee in college.

At the end of my undergraduate education at Ohio University, I moved to the beautiful American Southwest where I applied my education, continual training and and ongoing experience to related professional fields such as health care, journalism and special research areas.

My novels "Mission Into Light" and the sequel "Light’s Hand" are available in e-book and 6"x9" paperback from most online booksellers worldwide.
